En mycket vis vän till mig som jag ofta saknar väldigt mycket formulerade sig såhär för ca ett år sedan:

"I stand in the ocean. I love water, it is my happiness and my prosperity. I stand in waist-high water at about average happiness. In order for a wave to form my level of happiness must drop in order for that amount of water to add onto the wave. I grow sad, but when the wave arrives, I have more happiness than I ever thought possible. In fact, I am riding on my own emotions.

If the wave leaves me, I feel lower than ever before. I am now on a withdrawal, however, I don’t let it affect me too much. I know that a new wave approaches on the horizon, and forever they will approach.

The point of all that is that happiness never lasts forever, and always approaches. Nothing lasts forever. I have come to terms with myself. I am only me. I can only do what I know how to do; and thus, I look toward the horizon and await the oncoming wave."

--Omni--

Now isn't that incredibly gay.
